Components of Trus-T-Lift Home Lift

The Trus-T-Lift™ has a number of unique features that provide significant value.

​

Soft Touch Paddles – many people who have mobility challenges have a hard time with small pushbuttons as well. RAM patented our Soft Touch paddle controls that make it easy to know which lever to activate and low effort as well. Even more, the control system makes sure that you can’t damage the motor by pressing them both at the same time and puts a delay in between pressing one and the other to direction… just another little thing we think about for you!

​

Simple Design – when you look inside a Trus-T-Lift™ there are very few parts. It might seem easy but to get the design to be simple, robust, and effective is the art of great products. People like Steve jobs understood this and brought the whole world a new perspective about how simple and intuitively takes a great deal of work. We’ve always subscribed to the same type of philosophy at RAM and we hope our efforts can help improve lives.

Geared Belt Drive – not all drive systems are created equal and RAM’s has evolved yet again with the Trus-T-LIft 750 design! We now have a geared belt drive as part of the design and this type of arrangement is what keeps your car engine running so well most of the time. By using a gear belt we also avoid slipping and loss of load-carrying capacity. This is quite common in other belt drives, electric motor designs. We also avoid all hydraulics by staying to a purely electro-mechanical system. Check out the video to get a really good understanding of why this is so good.

All Electrical Components at the Top or On-Board – in some locations water and other debris can cause significant concerns. By putting the motor, all major electrical connections, bearings, and drive components at the top of our lift tower there is a lower chance of damage during severe weather as long as the platform is in the elevated position. This is not the case with hydraulic solutions and many other competitor products.

Limited or No Pit Required – if you are using a porch lift or a lift that does not require an enclosure/ hoistway/ shaft then RAM provides an automatic toe plate ramp that allows for easy entry and exit from your lift. In cases where you need to enclose the lift for safety code reasons RAM has one of the lowest profile platforms available and this will ensure that you don’t have to put in a large approach ramp or deep pit to get access to your lift.

Indoor and Outdoor Design – RAM is based in an area with some pretty extreme weather and we have designed the Trus-T-Lift™ to handle both indoor and outdoor applications.

​

Machine Roomless (MRL) – all the equipment for the Trus-T-Lift™ is contained. This means you don’t have to find extra space for hydraulics or other items in another part of your home or business. This may not sound like an important thing but in high-density areas or homes that are looking at a lift as part of a renovation this can be critical.
